Heres a quick report from the Vmax comp at Sprecks with Slowey, Ado and Craig Mann doing very well against some top competition..........

Sunday's Maui Vmax Speed Meeting was finally blessed with decent winds. The wind was moderate reaching 25mph with gusts to 28mph, and slightly onshore out of the north-east. Although the field of competitors was small the competition was fierce and there was tight racing all day. In the end Peter John edged Alex Augera into second place with a better average speed of 35.9 knots over Alex's 35.7. Alex held onto the best speed of the day with a 36.5 knot run. Matt Daniels sailed consistently edging past Tom Hammerton into 3rd place. In a last ditch effort Tom rigged a 6.6 with 15 minutes left to go in the competition convinced he could find the 0.4 knots he needed to pass Matt. Tom improved his average posting a 33.9 knot run, but it was not enough and he settled for fourth. Chris Adamson posted a nice 34.3 knot run on the way to fith and also claimed top Austrailian bragging rights passing Chris Lockwood on the Speed Ladder for the 7th place ranking. Two ladies joined the fray for the first time this year. Nice to see them out there giving it a go. Well done Kristen and Erin, we hope to see you at the next meeting August 30th.

Thanks Larko. Where did you get all that from? Is it on a website somewhere?

I just posted a couple of aerial views of the "speed course" in the photos section. Anders did 40 knots through there!

Here's another shot of the first mark in one of the slalom heats. Peter Slate leads from Peter John, myself and Slowy.
